The Mitsubishi Eclipse is a front-wheel-drive hatchback Coupe or convertible Spyder that's been around in its current form since the 2006 model year. Though it's not very refined and is quite large for a sporty car--unlike the first Eclipse that bowed in 1989--the current Mitsu Eclipse can be entertaining to drive, particularly when it's equipped with the V-6 engine, in either body style. The Eclipse's soft, organic styling hasn't held up as well in the field of crisply drawn coupes, but it has been touched up over the years with new front and rear ends. Last year, even the GS versions of the Eclipse took on some of the GT's deeper dams and skirts. There's a base four-cylinder engine with 162 horsepower in the Eclipse GS and GS Sport, but it's overtaxed by the car's hefty curb weight, particularly in the apple-bottomed Spyder. The 265-hp, 3. 8-liter V-6 found in the GT models is what you'd expect from an Eclipse, with ample torque giving it an almost musclecar flavor. Source: www.thecarconnection.com
